TRUE WOMANLINESS.

The following beautiful story is told of
Lady Stanley, wife Of the late Dean STAN
ley Of Westminster Abbey, in connection
with London hospital near the abbey:
LADY Stanley was in the habit of spend
ing good deal Of time in this hospital,
talking with the sick and suffering peo-
pie there, and trying to cheer and COM
fort them. Among these there was a
poor woman suffering from painful and
dangerous disease. Lady Stanley's kind
words had been a great comfort to her on
life could be saved only by her going
through very painful operation. They
told her that she must certainly die un-
less the operation were performed. Il
think 1 could bear it, she said, If Lady
Stanley could be with me while it was
being done Lady Stanley was sent for.
When the messenger arrived at her home
he found her dressed in the splendid
robes which ladies wear when called upon
to attend on Queen Victoria. She re-
ceived the message from the hospital.
There was no time to change her dress;
so she threw cloak over her, and
hastened to the hospital. She spoke
some encouraging words to the poor wo,
man, and stood by her side till the opera
ton was over and the poor, suffering
patient was made comfortable. Then the
noble lady fastened to the palace. She
spologized to the Queen for her delay in
coming, and told her what had caused
the delay. The Queen praised her for
kindly waiting on one of her sufferings
subjects before coming to wait on her,"

TESTIMONY FROM KANSAS
Contradicting the Anonymous
Reports of the Ants.

Mr.. w. j. Rupard, better known
throughout the county as Uncle
Billy Rupard, of Bales School House
neighborhood, now here on the grand
jury, Las received letter from an
aunt at Topeka, Kansas, and he allows
the HERALD to quote from it as fol-
lows: "Tom bought two acres of
ground with two houses on IL in
North Topeka four months ago for
s27O0, and its value now is fully double
that sum. You ask me about prohibi-
ton. / wish you could live here for
one year; you would never want to
live in State where they sell whisky
again. 1t is as odd a sight to see a
drunken man as show would be.
But that is not the best part of 1t:
Those men who were drunkards are
now making good livings for their
families and sending their children to
school, and are trying to raise them
nm In the most refined manner. These
men now pay their debts, which they
did not do before prohibition. 1
never hear of a fight in this country"
This is very conclusive Evidence of
the effect of prohibition, and comes
from lady who is a close observer
and is cspable of seeing the difference
in morality and prosperity here and
there.

THROUGH THE BRIDGE.
Narrow Escape OF n Passenger Train From
Frightful Disaster.

Narrow Escape Of Passenger Train FROM
Frightful Disaster.
CLEVELAND, o., Feb. ia bad railroad
smash-up occurred this morning about
one o'clock on the Cleveland & Pitts
burgh railroad, just south OF the city
limits. The bridge gave way under an ex-
press train, but luckily no lives were lost-
The night express on the Cleveland Il Pitts
burgh road left the Union Depot on time
Shortly after midnight it met with dis
aster ct bridge No. 2. The bridge was OF
iron, about sixty fest long and eighteen
feet above the water. Heavy rains had
swollen the creek 80 that It spanned
into torrent, and 1t Is supposed
that the food undermined the
stone abutments. When the locomotive
struck the bridge the engineer felt 1t trem-
BILE, but it passed over safelyand the baggage
and express car went over the shaky struc-
ture without accident The smoking car
had only got fairly on the bridge when it
saQped downward, and with sudden shock
the train was brought to o standstlll. Had
the train been running at the regular speed
a terrible disaster would have occurred, but
the engineer was going cautiously on ac-
count of the flooded condition OF the coun-
try. The sudden jerk threw the engine, bag
gage and express cars over on their sides
into a ditch, the tender remaining on the
track. The smoker caught between the abut-
ments and was held partly by the debris OF
the bridge and remained midway between
the water and the level Of the track. Only
one passenger and q brakeman were In 1t,
and they succeeded in climbing out without
injury. The first truck Of the passenger
car went over the edge of the abutment and
rolled upon the end Of the smoker. 1t con-
tanned fifteen people, four Of whom were

Health and Temperature.
Owing to the altitude and remoeness
from low swamps and streams, Brook.
haven is singularly free from msIarial
d seases, and its remarkable healthful.
ness is proverbial. The town has never
been visited by an ep demc of any kind,
and presents no local conditions what.
ever for disease.
A refreshing breeze from the Gull
plays almost continually during the
heated term. and as consequence. il
IS rare thing that the thermomete,
reaches 80 degrees
1t is universally remarked by strang,
ers that Brook haven is the most at
tractive town on the Illinois Central
railroad south of Jackson, and this il
undoubtedly the opin on of all who
have ever resided here. 1t is situated
moreover, at the cross ;ng of the Limos
Central railroad and the Natchez,
Brookhaven and Meridian railroad, q
Inc that has been surveyed and par.
TALLY built. and which. within few
years at most it is reasonably certain
will be completed, thus giving us the
advantage of cheaper freights, and
more direct communication with the
East.
Altogether. We confidently assert
that no place in Mississippi furnishes ;
greater number of advantages to the
stranger in search of permanent home
and no people viii extend him more
hearty and whole-souled welcome than
he will find in Brookhaven.

MOUNT BRIDGES, Ont, Feb. n.-A reign
of terror exists here, owing to several out
RACES which have been perpetrated by the
liquor dealers on the clergymen and others
who have commenced q crusade against
them in enforcing the Canada Temperance
act. Inspector Robertson's house was
broken into, the front door and window
smashed in, and havoc made generally
among the furniture. Two shots were
Ared in the hallway, but fortunately
without injury to any one. The
house of Rev. Silcox, who had been an
active worker against them, was also at
tackled, but they were discovered before
any damage was done. Rev. ]. Z. Moore, q
Methodist clergyman, was the next victl n,
all the window glass being smashed out Oh
